So now you need to look to see if the children are still linked to wife 15
or husband 833 or 1358 ... who is 1358? and where did he/she come from? Is
there a marriage to an unknown and all these children linked to that
marriage?
If not then you just need to find the kids and link them to the couple again
and that should bring their decendants along with them.
If the children are linked to one of the parents with an unknown other
parent, you tell legacy that unknown is actually known and say it is the
correct other parent and then you can merge those two parents. That merge
should bring in the decendants.
This mess may take awhile to iron out, so take it slow and steady is my
advice. And as someone said, keep saving your database before you do things.

Thank you for getting back to me. I saw my problem, threw up my hands in
horror and went out.
I will now try and explain what I now have.
Ni 1.
Patrick 579 m to Elizabeth 580

1358 m 883 with children 1365 292 1364 m 294 [then 3 generations of
children] 1358 m 883 with children as before

And it goes on further fro 2 1/2 pages
and it goes on further
I unlinked the marriage of the right hand side
Now I have
Patrick 579 m Elizabeth 580
Children
311
159
15 m 883 no children
581
6 m 2
316
51
I now have no children for 15 m 883 nor childen of 20 another 2 1/2
pages
I realize it is a matter of linkg people and I had to link 883 to his
wife 15 but I do not have any of the children and I have lsot the link
from 20 to all of his descendants.
I don't know whether you can make sense of this but I did not know how
else to explain it to you.
Here's hoping and thanks for your time.
Regards from Valerie in sunny Sydney.

Valerie - it is hard to help if you can't tell me what the worse mess
is.
You had the 2 people entered into legacy only once - but you had the
marriage set up twice. The instructions I gave should get rid of one
marriage, and they should be all good.
I'm sorry - but it is hard to help if I don't know what the situation is
now.

It really is too complicated to try and type up.
